The Trump administration should build on the significant achievements made by prior U.S. administrations to strengthen ties with Taiwan. An internal policy review should be conducted to evaluate what elements of the U.S.-Taiwan relationship can and should be improved. This could include consideration of loosening restrictions on some long-standing restrictions on official and military exchanges. However, the principle that the U.S.-Taiwan relationship is an unofficial relationship should not be compromised because it would trigger a strong reaction from Beijing and would put Taiwan’s security in jeopardy.
There is much that has been done and can be done between the United States and Taiwan within the framework of an unofficial relationship. Improvements in U.S.-Taiwan relations should be done without public fanfare, to reduce the possibility that Beijing feels compelled to react strongly.
U.S. officials should strongly encourage Beijing to restore official cross-Strait communication and negotiation channels to minimize the possibility of misunderstanding and miscalculation, and to provide opportunities to narrow differences and address problems.
The United States should warn Beijing against taking measures that are damaging to Taiwan’s economy and its participation in the international community. Should China pressure Taiwan in these areas, the United States should take actions to offset the negative impact of Chinese policies. For example, Chinese pressure aimed at preventing Taiwan from appropriate and meaningful participation in regional and international organizations should result in stepped-up U.S. efforts to work with like-minded countries to promote Taiwan’s involvement in cooperative diplomatic activities. Beijing’s exclusion of Taiwan from regional economic integration should lead the United States to accelerate negotiation of bilateral economic agreements with Taiwan and encourage other countries to follow suit. |
